Slashdot IRC Forum

Posted by michael on from the navel-gazing dept.

The IRC forum with CmdrTaco and Hemos is now complete, and a log has been posted. They answered quite a few questions about Slashdot's subscription system, bigger ads, and other assorted stuff. Don't miss the question about pop-up ads.

    I love Slashdot, but CT & Hemos, you look like idiots bumbling your way through explaining why we should pay to keep you employed. No sale.

    I just read the submission and decide based on that.

    'Throwing a few bucks in the guitar case'
    I forget that people don't bother *reading* slashdot before they complain


    This was in reference to the subscription system actually being more of a tip jar rather than a true subscription.

    Hey, why don't you call it that rather than belittling your users? I don't seem to recall having to "subscribe" to Penny Arcade to get the wallpaper, just give them a clearly labelled donation. The department name is not exactly the best place to tell people an important message you don't want them to miss. If it were, perhaps the next steaming pile of Katzshit could be "from the don't-know-my-ass-from-my-elbow-without-an-instruc tional-video dept."

    Oh, and it's nice to see that you can't spell for shit in real time, either. Why don't you sell off those VA options? Ought to be enough left for a remedial english course at the local community college.
